Unlike most e-notary providers, DocVerify does not charge a fee for every notary stamp or signature element placed on the pages of the documents. Each e-notary transaction created in DocVerify will allow the notary to place as many notary stamps or signatures as needed without having to worry about additional fees for having more than one notary stamp or signature on the document.

 

Not a Call Center

DocVerify is a true e-notary platform, and not a call center, which means the notary gets to keep most of the fees collected or the organization can use their own notaries for remote online notarizations. The cost savings can be tremendous for an organization where a call center might charge anywhere from $25 for a basic online notary to upwards of $300 for a multiple document remote notarization. DocVerify's e-notary platform will allow you to be in control while saving a lot of money in the process.

 

 

It's Fast

Once you have found a notary that can perform your remote notarization, either you can upload the document and request the notarization OR you can send them the document and they can do it for you. Once the document is processed by the DocVerify VeriVault, the remote notarization process can begin.

 

 

Web Cam Capable

In the states that allow remote notarizations, most of the time they will be completed via a web cam session. The notary will initiate the web cam by utilizing any number of tools, as DocVerify allows the notary complete flexibility to use the technologies they are most comfortable with. Once the web cam session starts, the notary will verify the identity of all the signers using various identity proofing methods, and then the signers will each sign the documents from their own locations which can be thousands of miles away.

 

 

Meets Legal Requirements

DocVerify's electronic notary platform adheres to each remote notarization state laws, and in most cases exceeds them. For example, VA requires ID verification in instances the person is not known to the notary, and DocVerify provides the necessary tools for that. Also, in Virginia's case, the state also requires that the notary maintain the video recording for 5 years that DocVerify also provides for the notary with the Enterprise editions.

 

 

Very Affordable

DocVerify doesn't charge a premium for this service other than a small fee for the identity proofing if the notary chooses to use it. This not only makes it affordable to the signers, but also allows the notary to make more money from each transaction for the duties performed by allowing the notary to keep most of the fees collected.

 

 

Security First!

DocVerify gives all parties peace of mind when it comes to remote notarizations. First, because the documents are all DocVerify-ed through the VeriVault they can never be altered or tampered with once they are processed. Second, all transactions are always secure using SSL based encryption between the parties and DocVerify. Lastly, all documents in the VeriVault are encrypted, which ensures they cannot be read or viewed by unauthorized parties.

 

 

x.509 Digital Certificates

Most remote notary states and DocVerify require the notary to acquire a digital certificate, and depending on the state DocVerify eliminates the confusion by providing the certificates directly from the DocVerify e-notary portal from a third party Certificate Authority provider. This reduces the learning curve tremendously by allowing the notary to focus on the more important things rather than having to learn how PKI works.

 

 

ID Verification

When the notary performs a remote online notarization, in most states the notary is required the signer to go through a form of ID Verification, which in most cases is also referred to as knowledge based authentication or KBA. With KBA the signer will provide information about themselves, and then the system will give them questions that only they should know. If answered correctly the remote notary can continue. DocVerify provides this service through third party KBA providers.

 

 

ID Credential Analysis

In addition to ID Verification, some state go further requiring each signer to provide a copy of their ID so that the system can quickly analyze it. With DocVerify this process is made simple with our propritary ID analysis solutions.

 

 

No Non-Competes

Because DocVerify is a true e-notary platform, there are no non-competes for anyone to sign. Notaries are in complete control, and free to use the platform as they wish unlike many call center type services that make notaries sign non-competes in order to perform remote notarizations.
